So much has been wrong with this case from day one. A judge, that happened to be a black woman, didn’t seem to think it necessary to place the victim above that of the criminal.  My mind has often reflected on the mother of the victim knowing that I must hold my babies a little tighter, and when they get older I must insist that they live with a level of caution and vigilance that is unfair. Why must we explain to any judge why this behavior was wrong? Why can’t this black woman see how disrespectful and disregarding her actions were? One can only wonder how would Judge Kemp feel if the black man dead was her son? I wonder if that ever crossed her mind.
